Appeal to find owners of dogs found abandoned in Blyth
16 Apr 2025
An appeal is being made to members of the public to come forward if they have any information about two dogs found abandoned in Blyth.
Two female Sar Peis were found abandoned on Thursday 3rd April 2025 in Joe Percy cut in Blyth. Both dogs were in extremely poor condition.
They are now receiving veterinary care and are being looked after by a local dog rescue kennel before they are eventually rehomed.
The dogs were afraid and withdrawn with skin, ear and eye issues. Neither dog was microchipped.
Northumberland County Council’s animal welfare team is appealing to anyone with any information to come forward. This may be camera footage around the area on the date in question or if they have seen a local resident walking these dogs.
An animal welfare officer from Northumberland County Council said: “These dogs were in a terrible condition so had been suffering for some time before eventually being abandoned. Someone somewhere knows who they belong to. We are appealing to anyone with information to come forward in the strictest of confidence.”
“We urge people to really think long and hard before getting any pet and consider whether they have the finances, time and dedication to look after a pet properly over its lifetime.”
